A First in HumanTrial to Evaluate The Safety, Tolerability, And Pharmacokinetics Of PF-06755347

A PHASE 1, RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-BLIND, SPONSOR-OPEN, PLACEBO -CONTROLLED, FIRST-IN-HUMAN TRIAL TO EVALUATE THE SAFETY, TOLERABILITY, AND PHARMACOKINETICS OF PF 06755347 AFTER SINGLE ASCENDING INTRAVENOUS AND SUBCUTANEOUS DOSING IN HEALTHY ADULT MALE PARTICIPANTS AND OPEN-LABEL AFTER SINGLE SUBCUTANEOUS DOSING IN MALE AND FEMALE PARTICIPANTS WITH PERSISTENT OR CHRONIC PRIMARY IMMUNE THROMBOCYTOPENIA
